Big brother Kalan.” Alice called ou

Big brother Kalan.” Alice called out in a low voice, while looking at him with urgency in her eyes.

Perhaps others would feel pride at being the inspiration for a Grandmaster-level sculpture. But this ‘Awakening From the Dream’ of Linley’s was different. Anyone who had ever spent any time analyzing sculptures would easily be able to tell from the aura given off by those five figures that there was a romantic history between Linley and Alice.

If Alice had just married into a small clan, that wouldn’t be as much of an issue.

But…she was marrying into the clan of Kalan Debs.

Kalan was the future successor to the leadership of the Debs clan, and the Debs clan was one of the top three clans of the entire Kingdom of Fenlai.

“Calm down, calm down.” Kalan comfortingly held Alice’s hand.

But Alice could feel that Kalan’s hand was covered in sweat.

“Father…” Kalan turned towards his father, Bernard, then looked at his mother. His parents both doted on him exceedingly, which was why they were willing to spend eight million gold coins on Kalan’s behalf. After all, even to the Debs clan, eight million gold coins was an exceedingly large sum.

“Kalan, don’t even think about it. The clan can’t possibly hand over ten million gold coins just for the sake of your fiancée.” Bernard said, his face extremely solemn.

Kalan was stunned. Even Alice turned her head to look at Bernard, her eyes filled with worry and a hint of supplication.

“We’ll act in accordance with our previous discussion.” Bernard totally ignored Alice’s silent appeal as he coldly pronounced his judgment.

Kalan froze for a long moment, while by his side, Alice tightly clutched his hands, staring into Kalan’s eyes. Alice fully understood what Bernard meant by his words just now. Alice was extremely unwilling to accept this result.

Kalan glanced at Alice. He let out a helpless sigh, then slightly shook his head.

“Big brother Kalan, I’m not willing…” Alice said in a small voice.

Kalan clasped Alice’s hands. He gently shook his head again. “There’s no other way. Alice…I am the heir to our clan. I have to put the considerations of the clan first. I hope you are willing to sacrifice a little bit for me as well. I promise you that my heart towards you will never waver.”

Alice fell silent.

The heir to the clan!

These five simple words guaranteed that every single action of Kalan’s would reflect upon the honor and glory of the Debs clan. Although Bernard loved and doted on his son very much, no matter what, he could not permit Alice to become Kalan’s principal wife.

That’s right. There was no way she could become the principal wife.

In other words, any children which Alice bore Kalan in the future would not be able to become a heir, or be considered to be direct line of descent.

In truth, ever since the ‘Awakening From the Dream’ had been viewed by many people, the elders of the Debs clan had been constantly urging Kalan to give up Alice. Even if Kalan insisted on marrying her, they didn’t wish for Alice to become his principal wife. But Kalan had remained steadfast.

In the end, Bernard, the doting father, compromised. He decided that if they were able to purchase this ‘Awakening From the Dream’, then this matter would more or less be at an end.

But from the looks of it…

“Big brother Kalan!” Alice looked at Kalan, her eyes turning moist. At the same time, she turned to look at the other members of the Debs clan. But at this moment, neither Kalan, nor Bernard, nor Kalan’s mother, paid Alice any mind.

At that moment, Alice felt her heart grow cold.

She suddenly thought back to everything she had experienced with Linley, how Linley had protected her and unstintingly cherished her. In the past, she had always taken Linley’s constant yielding to her for granted, but at this moment, how she longed for that feeling!

Raising her head, her gaze passed through the glass window to stare at the third level. But all she could see was the black glass.

“Ten million gold! Ten million gold! Is anyone willing to bid higher?” That golden-haired man was calling out from the platform.

The man dressed in the loose robes casually glanced around. And then, he directly addressed that golden-haired auctioneer. “Hey, stop wasting time. Hurry up and start counting.” The nobles nearby all began to laugh.

How could an auctioneer possibly obey the commands of one of the bidders below?

Based on their understanding of this golden-haired auctioneer, they knew him to be someone who would constantly escalate the bidding wars until the price reached an extremely high level.

But upon hearing the words of the man in the loose robes, the auctioneer seemed to have been hypnotized. Very naturally, he said, “Okay, then I’ll start counting! Three, two…”

“10.1 million gold coins!”

An ancient-sounding voice rang out from one of the second-level private booths.

Everyone’s attention turned towards that booth. Even that man dressed in the loose robes turned to stare at that booth in astonishment. In that second level booth, aside from the Debs clan, every single clan present was one of the major, world-spanning clans of the Yulan continent.

The wealth of those clans was far higher than that of the Debs clan.

“Whoah, so there’s someone here who appreciates value after all. But raising it by just 100,000 is a bit too stingy. 10.3 million gold coins.” The man in the loose robes said casually, grinning.

Linley and the others on the third level all noticed the man in the loose robes now, but from their current angle, they could only see the man from the side, and were unable to see his face clearly.

“Hrm?”

Cardinal Guillermo and Cardinal Lampson of the Radiant Church both suddenly rose to their feet. Frowns on their face, they walked to the opposite end of the glass, carefully looking down at the loosely-attired man below.

Just at that moment…

The loosely robed man seemed to have discovered the presence of the two Cardinals, as he raised his head upwards and glanced towards them.

“Him?”

The faces of the two Cardinals suddenly turned bone white.

Guillermo and Lampson exchanged glances, then they both shook their heads. In truth, the Radiant Church had already come to a decision about this auction. They had decided to spend a very large sum of money to purchase this sculpture, and thus improve the relationship between them and Linley.

But upon seeing this man, both Guillermo and Lampson silently decided to change their course of action.

“It’s best that we not get into a bidding war with this madman.” Cardinal Guillermo said softly.

Cardinal Lampson nodded as well. “I definitely don’t want to agitate that madman either.”

Although they both referred to this person as a ‘madman’, the fear they felt towards him was fear which was etched into their bones. Both Lampson and Guillermo were very much aware as to how terrifying that thirty or forty year old man could be. Lampson, in particular…

Because if it wasn’t for this madman, Lampson probably wouldn’t have had the opportunity to be promoted to the rank of Cardinal.

There were only five Cardinals at any time within the Radiant Church. Precisely because this madman had casually killed one of the previous Cardinals, Lampson had the opportunity to be promoted to his current position. But even though he had killed a Cardinal, the Holy Emperor was still unwilling to be enemies with this madman.

“10.4 million gold coins.” That old voice rang out once again from the second level.

The loosely robed old man raised his head up, glancing up with a frown. “You really are irritating. 11 million gold coins.”

“11 million, this gentleman is willing to bid 11 million gold coins. Is anyone willing to bid any higher?” That golden-haired auctioneer was growing excited. After all, even the ‘Bloody-eyed Maned Lion’ sculpture, the greatest of the Ten Masterpieces, was only worth 13 million.

On the third level, Guillermo asked Lampson quietly, “Lampson. Do you know which clan is situated in that booth? They actually dare to struggle with that madman? Are they tired of living?”

“Director Maia.” Lampson called over Director Maia, seated not too far from them.

Director Maia immediately came over.

“Director Maia. Do you know which clan is located within that booth?” Lampson asked. “The one where the leader is a young woman, I believe.” Being on the third level, Lampson naturally could see the people seated on the sofas in the second level booths.

As for that elderly man, he seemed to be that woman’s servant.

Director Maia took a glance, then laughed. “Lord Lampson. Lord Guillermo. This young lady is a female in the principal line of inheritance for the Leon clan of the Yulan Empire. This booth was reserved under the name of the Leon clan.”

“The Leon clan?” Lampson and Guillermo were both startled.

In the Yulan Empire, the most ancient Empire in the Yulan continent, the Leon clan was ranked fifth amongst the major clans. A clan which could rank in the top five of the Yulan Empire was capable of easily destroying the Debs clan.

What’s more, the majority of the descendants of the Leon clan all lived within the Yulan Empire, and thus in the Yulan Empire, they had an enormous web of influence.

“Guillermo, I believe that in our Ernst Institute, there was someone formerly known as the number one genius of the Institute by the name of ‘Dixie’. He seems to be from the Yulan Empire’s Leon clan, correct?” Lampson asked.

Guillermo was comparatively more familiar with the affairs of the Ernst Institute.

“Right, and not just Dixie. He has a sister as well, whose name I can’t recall. These two siblings both requested to be allowed to study at our Ernst Institute. Just a few days ago, though, this Dixie applied to graduate.” Guillermo directly revealed what he knew.

Lampson nodded as well.

“Seems like this girl is Dixie’s younger sister.” Lampson looked

Kakak Kalan. "Alice memanggil dengan suara rendah, sambil melihat dia dengan urgensi dalam matanya. Mungkin orang lain akan merasa bangga jadi inspirasi untuk patung Grandmaster tingkat. Tapi ini 'Kebangkitan Dari Mimpi' dari Linley adalah berbeda. Siapa pun yang pernah menghabiskan waktu menganalisis patung akan dengan mudah dapat memberi tahu dari aura yang dilepaskan oleh lima tokoh yang ada sejarah romantis antara Linley dan Alice. Jika Alice baru saja menikah dengan klan kecil, yang tidak akan sebagai banyak masalah. Tapi ... dia menikah dengan klan dari Kalan Debs. Kalan itu penerus masa depan kepada pimpinan klan Debs, dan klan Debs adalah salah satu dari tiga marga dari seluruh Kerajaan Fenlai. " Tenang, tenang. "Kalan menghibur memegang tangan Alice. Tapi Alice bisa merasakan bahwa tangan Kalan ditutupi keringat." Ayah ... "Kalan berbalik ke arah ayahnya, Bernard, lalu menatap ibunya. Kedua orang tuanya memanjakan dia sangat, yang mengapa mereka bersedia untuk menghabiskan delapan juta koin emas atas nama Kalan ini. Setelah semua, bahkan untuk klan Debs, delapan juta koin emas adalah jumlah sangat besar. "Kalan, bahkan tidak berpikir tentang hal itu. Klan tidak mungkin tangan lebih dari sepuluh juta koin emas hanya demi tunangan Anda. "Kata Bernard, wajahnya sangat serius. Kalan tertegun. Bahkan Alice menoleh untuk melihat Bernard, matanya penuh dengan khawatir dan sedikit doa. "Kami akan bertindak sesuai dengan diskusi kita sebelumnya." Bernard benar-benar diabaikan banding diam Alice saat ia dingin menjatuhkan hukuman nya. Kalan membeku beberapa saat, sementara di sisinya, Alice erat mencengkeram tangannya, menatap mata Kalan ini. Alice sepenuhnya mengerti apa Bernard dimaksud dengan kata-katanya barusan. Alice sangat mau menerima hasil ini. Kalan melirik Alice. Dia mendesah tak berdaya, kemudian sedikit menggelengkan kepalanya. "Kakak Kalan, aku tidak mau ..." Alice berkata dengan suara kecil. Tangan Kalan menggenggam Alice. Dia lembut menggelengkan kepalanya lagi. "Tidak ada cara lain. Alice ... Saya pewaris klan kami. Saya harus meletakkan pertimbangan klan pertama. Saya harap Anda bersedia mengorbankan sedikit bagi saya juga. Saya berjanji kepada Anda bahwa hati saya terhadap Anda tidak akan pernah goyah. "Alice terdiam. The pewaris klan! Kelima kata sederhana dijamin bahwa setiap tindakan tunggal Kalan ini akan merenungkan kehormatan dan kemuliaan klan Debs. Meskipun Bernard dicintai dan memanjakan anaknya sangat banyak, tidak peduli apa, ia tidak bisa mengijinkan Alice untuk menjadi istri kepala Kalan ini. Itu benar. Tidak ada cara dia bisa menjadi istri utama. Dengan kata lain, setiap anak yang Alice menanggung Kalan di masa depan tidak akan mampu menjadi pewaris, atau dianggap garis keturunan langsung. Sebenarnya, sejak ' Kebangkitan Dari Mimpi 'telah dilihat oleh banyak orang, tua-tua dari klan Debs telah terus-menerus mendesak Kalan menyerah Alice. Bahkan jika Kalan bersikeras menikahinya, mereka tidak ingin untuk Alice untuk menjadi istri utamanya. Tapi Kalan telah tetap teguh. Pada akhirnya, Bernard, ayah penyayang, dikompromikan. Dia memutuskan bahwa jika mereka mampu membeli ini 'Kebangkitan Dari Mimpi', maka hal ini akan lebih atau kurang menjadi berakhir. Tapi dari kelihatannya ... "Kakak Kalan!" Alice menatap Kalan, matanya berputar lembab. Pada saat yang sama, ia berbalik untuk melihat anggota lain dari klan Debs. Tapi saat ini, baik Kalan, atau Bernard, atau ibu Kalan ini, dibayar Alice pikiran apapun. Pada saat itu, Alice merasa hatinya menjadi dingin. Dia tiba-tiba teringat kembali segala sesuatu yang telah berpengalaman dengan Linley, bagaimana Linley telah dilindungi dan unstintingly dihargai nya. Di masa lalu, ia selalu mengambil konstan Linley yang menghasilkan padanya untuk diberikan, tapi pada saat ini, bagaimana dia merindukan perasaan itu! Budidaya kepalanya, tatapannya melewati jendela kaca menatap tingkat ketiga. Tapi semua dia bisa melihat kaca hitam. "Sepuluh juta emas! Sepuluh juta emas! Apakah ada yang mau menawar lebih tinggi? "Orang itu berambut emas menelepon keluar dari platform. Pria mengenakan jubah longgar santai melirik sekitar. Dan kemudian, ia langsung ditujukan bahwa lelang berambut emas. "Hei, berhenti membuang-buang waktu. Cepat dan mulai menghitung. "Para bangsawan dekat semua mulai tertawa. Bagaimana mungkin sebuah lelang mungkin mematuhi perintah dari salah satu penawar bawah? Berdasarkan pemahaman mereka tentang lelang emas berambut ini, mereka tahu dia menjadi seseorang yang akan terus-menerus meningkat perang penawaran sampai harga mencapai tingkat yang sangat tinggi. Tapi setelah mendengar kata-kata orang itu dalam jubah longgar, juru lelang tampaknya telah dihipnotis. Sangat alami, ia berkata, "Oke, maka saya akan mulai menghitung! Tiga, dua ... "" 10,1 juta koin emas! "Sebuah suara yang terdengar kuno terdengar dari salah satu bilik pribadi tingkat kedua. Perhatian semua orang berpaling ke arah bilik itu. Bahkan pria mengenakan jubah longgar berbalik menatap bahwa booth heran. Dalam booth tingkat kedua, selain dari klan Debs, setiap klan hadir tunggal adalah salah satu utama, dunia yang mencakup klan dari benua Yulan. Kekayaan orang-klan jauh lebih tinggi dari klan Debs. "Whoah, sehingga ada seseorang di sini yang menghargai nilai setelah semua. Tapi menaikkannya dengan hanya 100.000 agak terlalu pelit. 10,3 juta koin emas. "Orang dalam jubah longgar berkata dengan santai, nyengir. Linley dan yang lainnya pada tingkat ketiga semua melihat orang di jubah longgar sekarang, tapi dari sudut mereka saat ini, mereka hanya bisa melihat pria itu dari samping , dan tidak dapat melihat wajahnya dengan jelas. "Hrm?" Kardinal Guillermo dan Kardinal Lampson Gereja Radiant baik tiba-tiba naik ke kaki mereka. Mengerutkan kening di wajah mereka, mereka berjalan ke ujung kaca, hati-hati melihat ke bawah pada pria longgar-berpakaian bawah. Tepat pada saat itu ... Pria longgar berjubah tampaknya telah menemukan keberadaan dua Cardinals, saat ia mengangkat nya kepala ke atas dan melirik ke arah mereka. "Dia?" Wajah dua Cardinals tiba-tiba berubah menjadi putih tulang. Guillermo dan Lampson bertukar pandang, kemudian mereka berdua menggelengkan kepala mereka. Sebenarnya, Gereja Radiant sudah datang ke keputusan tentang lelang ini. Mereka telah memutuskan untuk menghabiskan jumlah yang sangat besar uang untuk membeli patung ini, dan dengan demikian meningkatkan hubungan antara mereka dan Linley. Tapi setelah melihat orang ini, baik Guillermo dan Lampson diam-diam memutuskan untuk mengubah tindakan mereka. "Yang terbaik yang kita tidak masuk ke perang penawaran dengan orang gila ini. "kata Kardinal Guillermo lembut. Kardinal Lampson mengangguk juga. "Saya pasti tidak ingin mengganggu orang gila yang baik." Meskipun mereka berdua disebut orang ini sebagai 'orang gila', ketakutan mereka merasa arahnya adalah ketakutan yang terukir tulang-tulang mereka. Kedua Lampson dan Guillermo yang sangat menyadari bagaimana menakutkan bahwa orang tua tiga atau empat puluh tahun bisa. Lampson, khususnya ... Karena jika bukan karena orang gila ini, Lampson mungkin tidak akan memiliki kesempatan untuk dipromosikan ke peringkat Kardinal. Hanya ada lima Cardinals setiap saat dalam Gereja Radiant. Justru karena orang gila ini telah santai membunuh salah satu Kardinal sebelumnya, Lampson memiliki kesempatan untuk dipromosikan ke posisi sekarang. Tapi meskipun ia telah membunuh seorang Kardinal, Kaisar Suci masih mau menjadi musuh dengan orang gila ini. "10,4 juta koin emas." Itu suara lama terdengar sekali lagi dari tingkat kedua. Orang tua longgar berjubah mengangkat kepalanya , melirik dengan kening berkerut. "Kau benar-benar menjengkelkan. 11 juta koin emas. "" 11 juta, pria ini bersedia mengajukan tawaran 11 juta koin emas. Apakah ada yang bersedia menawar lebih tinggi? "Itu lelang emas berambut tumbuh bersemangat. Setelah semua, bahkan 'Berdarah-bermata maned Lion' patung, yang terbesar dari Sepuluh Karya, itu hanya bernilai 13 juta. Pada tingkat ketiga, Guillermo bertanya Lampson pelan, "Lampson. Apakah Anda tahu mana klan terletak di booth itu? Mereka benar-benar berani berjuang dengan orang gila itu? Apakah mereka lelah hidup? "" Direktur Maia. "Lampson disebut atas Direktur Maia, duduk tidak terlalu jauh dari mereka. Direktur Maia segera datang." Direktur Maia. Apakah Anda tahu mana klan terletak di dalam bilik itu? "Tanya Lampson. "Yang mana pemimpin adalah seorang wanita muda, saya percaya." Berada di tingkat ketiga, Lampson alami bisa melihat orang-orang yang duduk di sofa di bilik tingkat kedua. Adapun bahwa manusia lanjut usia, ia tampaknya hamba perempuan itu . Direktur Maia mengambil sekilas, lalu tertawa. "Tuhan Lampson. Tuhan Guillermo. Wanita muda ini adalah perempuan di garis pokok warisan untuk klan Leon Kekaisaran Yulan. Stan ini disediakan dengan nama klan Leon. "" The Leon klan? "Lampson dan Guillermo keduanya kaget. Di Yulan Empire, Kekaisaran paling kuno di benua Yulan, klan Leon menduduki peringkat kelima di antara klan utama . Sebuah klan yang bisa peringkat di atas lima Kekaisaran Yulan mampu dengan mudah menghancurkan klan Debs. Terlebih lagi, mayoritas keturunan klan Leon semua hidup dalam Kekaisaran Yulan, dan dengan demikian di Kekaisaran Yulan, mereka memiliki web yang sangat besar pengaruhnya. "Guillermo, saya percaya bahwa di Ernst Institute kami, ada seseorang yang sebelumnya dikenal sebagai nomor satu jenius dari Institut dengan nama 'Dixie'. Dia tampaknya dari Leon klan Yulan Kekaisaran, benar? "Tanya Lampson. Guillermo adalah relatif lebih akrab dengan urusan Ernst Institute." Benar, dan bukan hanya Dixie. Dia memiliki saudara juga, yang namanya saya tidak ingat. Kedua saudara kandung kedua diminta untuk diizinkan untuk belajar di Ernst Institute kami. Hanya beberapa hari yang lalu, meskipun, Dixie ini diterapkan untuk lulusan. "Guillermo langsung mengungkapkan apa yang dia tahu. Lampson mengangguk juga." Sepertinya gadis ini adalah adik Dixie. "Lampson tampak
